I'm almost done the last of the 5 Cat Who books I got (I would have been done ages ago, if I didn't only read at work, on breaks). Kinda left the last one alone a bit, because I forgot it, and started another book instead...

So yeah, re-reading the first Terry Goodkind Sword of Truth saga book, again XD I meant to grab the 3rd one in the series, but I couldn't find it >_>

Finally got myself reading again after a bit of a break over the last few months...Picked up The Echo Maker by Richard Powers...Stumbled across it in the library,read the back,thought it sounded good,and took it out

quote Wikipedia Summary

The Echo Maker is a 2006 novel by American writer Richard Powers which won the National Book Award for fiction.[1] It was a finalist for the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.

On a winter night on a remote Nebraska road, twenty-seven-year-old Mark Schluter flips his truck in a near-fatal accident. His older sister, Karin, his only near kin, returns reluctantly to their hometown to nurse Mark back from a traumatic head injury. But when he emerges from a protracted coma, Mark believes that this woman — who looks, acts, and sounds just like his sister — is really an impostor. Shattered by her brother's refusal to recognize her, Karin contacts the cognitive neurologist Gerald Weber, famous for his case histories describing brain disorders. Weber recognized Mark's condition as a rare case of Capgras syndrome — the delusion that people in one's life are doubles or impostors — and eagerly investigates.

What he discovers in Mark slowly undermines even his own sense of being. Meanwhile, Mark, armed only with a note left by an anonymous witness, attempts to learn what happened the night of his inexplicable accident.

50 pages in so far and finding it really interesting =) Tis a good read thus far...

I'm reading Ian McEwan's Atonement for a critical writing class. I will tell you, I'm about half way through and I wasn't expecting the story to go in the direction it has. I suppose knowing that the book is post-modern should have given me the heads-up that everyone was going to suffer needlessly, though.

Books I'm currently reading:The Canterbury Tales by ChaucerPortrait of the Earth (Geology Textbook)Modern Passings: Death Rites Politics and Social Change in Imperial JapanA Modern History of JapanHistory and Historians: A Historiographical IntroductionGuide to Genealogical Research in the national archives of the United States

I am now onto the last of the Steve Berry books that are currently available for purchase, that I haven't read - The Templar Legacy.

I think I'll be a little lost when I've finished it as I won't know what to go on and read afterward. I think I might scope out my local second hand bookstore and see what other titles I might be able to dig up.

The "City of Bones" from the "Mortal Instruments" collection series. I plan to read both: "City of Ash" and "City of Glass." I love the books, and was pissed at the ending of the first, just finished today. Addictive lil things, I recommend the series to anyone.
